‘OPS is a recognised leader in assisting the oil and gas downstream industry organising and operating plants by providing high calibre professionals and engineers and specialised services’

At production start-up of a refinery or a petrochemical plant, OPS deploys people following a plan agreed with the plant owners. In consultation with OPS, the plant owners can plan the required roles and number of key operating positions well in advance, which can be particularly important in the case of a green field project.
OPS can tap a reservoir of qualified and experienced professionals of different backgrounds and nationalities.

Major points to take into account in this implementation phase are:

• Plant organisation chart
• Identification of key job positions to be filled in by the two parties
• Job description and definition of objectives for the plant personnel
• Selection and submission of CV’s to plant owner
• Setting up of the personnel deployment program on site

The provision of highly skilled professionals into the plant organisation allows the following objectives to be achieved:

• Proper and safe plant operations
• Asset integrity preservation
• Production maximisation and process optimisation
• Costs reduction
• Rapid integration between national and foreign personnel
• Standardisation of operating systems
